left or right handed? Is this a joystick for lefties?

The default model is right hand only, but I have seen a left hand version. I am not sure where it came from.

The unit is basically symmetrical other than the windage knob which is on the left. So there should not be any difference for a right or left handed person.

My husband and I are right handed, and this mouse has a slight slant to the right, but I tried it with my left hand and I don't see why it wouldn't work. It is wonderful, it's quiet and works real good, I love it. I hope this helps.

Personally I'm not left handed, but just based on it's shape it doesn't fit into my left hand. I suspect a lefty would find this device awkward and uncomfortable.

You can use your left hand at the top to trigger the blade and your right hand on the handle. I'll be using it today (being somewhat ambidextrous) to see if there are any negatives to that approach. The blade will always be housed to your right, regardless of how you hold it, but I don't see why that would be much of an issue for a leftie.

It is designed like a spatula, so works that way for either. But the straight/cutting edge seems would be best for right handed, not sure if it would be awkward for leftys. it is exactly as the picture depicts. Also, it is a very heavy wt commercial grade feeling tool. I love mine and use it quite often for many things. I was very surprised at the excellent quality. Hope this helps.

The one I purchased was right-handed. Also, it's a little too hard for my 6 year old son to pull back, so be sure the child is able to pull back every bit of 18 lbs of pressure!

Yes, no difference which hand you use. I have opened it one-handed both right and left.

I am left handed and just use it with my right hand. Just the way I learned.

It has a straight design and the control button is toward the top in the middle of the front so I would say yes, it work the same for both left and right handed users.

Hi. As far as I know there is a version for left handed shooters. I can tell that at least for right handed it is ok if your hand is not to small. Regards.

I am right handed, so I use it clockwise but in order to answer your question, I tried it counter-clockwise and it worked. So you can use it either way.

Not strictly. I am right handed, and although I mostly use it with my right hand, I have no problem using it with my left hand. So if you are left handed you should be able to use it with either hand.

No it isn't a left handed mouse. I believe you can change the settings to operate like a left handed mouse software wise but physically it is built to be ergonomical for right hand users if you look at the pictures.

well physically a lefty could, but i dont know if a left handed person could really grasp the complexity of motions needed to...just kidding. yes, it swings both ways with no adjustments.

My 3-yr-old uses it with either hand. The only button is directly on top of the mouse and is universally shaped (I'm a lefty, so I know it can be frustrating). I think it's been a great investment.

Hi nomad,Although I am right handed, I know there is a setting inside where you can adjust for either left handed or right handed orientation. Hope this helps.
